lowering

[EYY]

Nah no chance it includes shocks, struts, springs, rear camber kit, 4 wheel alignment and labor. It's a much more involved and expensive exercise than people seem to think.

**** now im scared its going to cost too much, i was only looking to spend around $500....

 

[someguy360]

how much would it cost to do it properly? i just got told 400 to lower it so im guessing that includes the rest lol

Generally for springs, front struts, shocks and rear springs in something decent like King Springs/Monroe gear is around $650ish just for the parts no labour.

I'm assuming the mechanic is just doing what you are asking, lower the car, there is a difference between lowering a car and lowering a car properly and safely.

If you can't afford to do it right don't do it, not only are you putting lives at risk including your own but if you are in an at fault accident insurance doesn't have to pay out if they find you have done unsafe mods to suspension components.

just save your pennies for a bit longer and do it right the first time , like everyone else here has said. Itll be worth it if you do it properly. The springs/shocks assembly does a pretty important and hard job if ya think about it

Agreed, when you lower a car it changes the whole geometry of the car!

Check your tyres man. Pic in first post looks like they are on wrong side of car.

He's right. OP should really swap his tyres. Its ok in the dry but when it gets wet you could aquaplane like crazy. Seriously.
